Just finished my Costa Rica Trip and had the best time ever!! If you are considering it DO IT!!!
I’ve been on many many group tours and this was by far the best I have done to date! The group leader - Elmer, honestly made the trip and just went above and beyond in every possible way to ensure we were having a good time! Will definitely be booking another Intro trip soon as it was the best two weeks ever!

I just want to thank all Lima Tours staff for the wonderful trip we had. Everything was perfect.It is hard to pick only one place to say we like the most. Each place we have visited has something that makes it unique. Specially, with the information provided by the guides. All were great!Our journey started in Lima, a huge city with its contrasts. On the first day we had enough time to take a walk around Miraflores from our hotel to Larcomar Mall.Next day during the tour, we had the privilege of seeing the Sunday Easter parade at Plaza de Armas in front of the Cathedral. The carpets made of flowers were beautiful! We walked through the historical center, we visited the Convento, Casa de Aliaga and the Larco Museum with our guide who made the visits more interesting.We traveled to Pisco to take the small plane to see the Nazca Lines. Seeing the lines was a dream that came true. The hotel was great, the room view of the sunset was epic. Hundreds of photos taken.Next day, Islas Ballestas. I have never seen so many birds at the same time. How rich the reserve is!After that, we enjoyed our free time at the beautiful hotel and had lunch at a local restaurant in Paracas with our guide and driver, we went back to Lima. One more opportunity to taste Peruvian culinary.The following day we arrived in the picturesque Cusco city. We visited archeological sites and the Cathedral. Our guide was very conscious of our struggle to breath in such high altitude, so we walked slowly with frequent stops. Perfect!Early in the morning, we travel to Ollantaytambo to take the Vistadome train to Aguas Calientes. The train ride is a must to do in Peru.In Aguas Calientes, we met our guide who took us to a bus ride until Machu Picchu.Wow! Machu Picchu is the highlight of the trip and it was saved to the end, now I can understand why. It is hard to express in words the emotion felt when we saw the citadel at the first time. Love it! Our guide new all the best spots to take photos where didn?t have too many tourists around. All explanation given to us just made the tour more interesting. I am still thinking how ancient Peruvian people were so smart, how they knew so much!!Too soon we need to go back home, but our Peru trip will be in our memories forever.Thank you!

"Our traveling group had the pleasure of working with the travel team for our trip to Buenos Aires and Patagonia. From start to finish, they were professional, responsive, kind, and very knowledgeable.
With keen listening skills, Mery patiently developed a customized travel plan that met our unique desires and needs. Once booked, we had the support of Antonella, who continued to work out more specific details for the trip and actually book all of our hotels, excursions, and transfers.
During the trip, as questions or requests arose, Antonella and the customer service team responded quickly and made adaptations that really helped our family enjoy this trip. Our excursion guides were exceptional, and we would work with this company over and over again for our travels to this region! Well done and thanks for making it such a great trip!"

My family booked a customized 8-night trip to Torres del Paine, Perito Moreno and Iguazu and we were happy with how the trip went. Throughout the planning process Lucia and Julieta answered all of our questions and gave us different options that suited our needs. We enjoyed the hotels which were all in excellent central locations (which was what we requested). The professional local operators were both punctual and knowledgeable.
Perhaps the highest compliment is that nothing went wrong during our trip and I doubt that is just by luck :-)
If you are looking for experts to help you plan and organize your vacation, this is a great agency!

Set sail for an up-close wildlife odyssey with Pure Galapagos (Grand Daphne)—an eight-day adventure cruise that’s all about the islands’ legendary creatures and dramatic landscapes. This moderate-activity trip, beginning and ending on Baltra Island, skips the constant passenger changes and detours of many cruises, letting you fully immerse yourself in the archipelago’s wonders.
Snorkel alongside playful sea lions and reef sharks off Isla Santa Cruz and Isla Bartolome, hike volcanic trails on remote Isla Fernandina, and observe rare species like land iguanas and flightless cormorants on Punta Espinosa. Bird lovers will delight in the sight of frigatebirds, boobies, and pelicans soaring above North Seymour.
The unique selling point of this sailing tour package is its uninterrupted focus on wildlife and scenery—no distractions, just pure Galapagos magic. For nature enthusiasts and adventure seekers, this trip guarantees memories (and photos) you’ll treasure forever.

Perfection. I have nothing to complain about. And it was truly the trip of a lifetime. I’ve wanted to visit Peru since I was 3 years old watching Jacque Cousteau (I’m 59 now) and it was every bit as magical, intriguing, awe inspiring, and beautiful as I had hoped.
